GWG8541 If you can’t laugh at yourself, it’s not fun. I could’ve seen the look on your face when that “noise” occurred.

Dave in AZ ha, I know how to get around on social media, since I had to use it in my previous career. I just stay off of it to keep myself out of trouble. I have a low tolerance for stupid people. Plus I do not care to support some of the media platforms out there. They have become way to political. Thats whats nice about this community.

zbigjeff my son had just walked in the house when it popped. The look on his face was even better. I can’t post his actual comment, but it was roughly “what the @&$% was that?”. His reaction made me laugh.

Dave in AZ the water doesn’t plump them if you have it up to temp when they go in from drying in the smoker. They will maintain their size the remainder of the thermal finishing. If the meat is cured and put in a smoker for the initial drying, sous vide or thermal processing in water works great. I’ve never had particles become an issue, even from open ends. The water gets a little dark from the smoke and a little (very little) oil may show up on the water. People in this community definitely made me a believer in sous vide for finishing.
Totally agree with you here. Even had some semi wrinkled sticks come out of the SV nice and smooth. Well done!!
